Just uploaded a second picture just to show off how adorable my bed is with the pillow and my Marco teddy buffalo. It was a crazy mess trying to get othe build-a-bear tables at WoW but omfg it was so freaking worth it, I love my little Marco so much, and it just ties the whole bed together. (I felt like my bed looked kind of empty before and now it is perfect and I just wanted to share because I’m so proud of it lol). fyi- I go to Marshall University, who are the Thundering Herd, you just say go herd though. Marco, is the name of the buffalo mascot that runs around in costume at football games and such. I just learned at WoW that the name Marco comes from before Marshall was a university, mar from Marshall co from college. Yeah I just wanted to give a little background for all of you non-Herd fan people haha)

It’s finished! It’s in my dorm and it looks AWESOME! I am suuuuper proud of it and its really comfy and adorable, so! Can’t complain at all! They fabric (that is essentially the pillow with the crochet as decoration) is gray and it matches my bed spread and stuff. And the green kind of (sort of not really) matches my blanket, but it doesn’t really matter because it bring like a pop of cute school spirit to my bed/room (GO HERD!!!!).

I made a change to the pattern where I don’t do the 4th row, I just use the chain spaces from the 3rd row. I think it looks a lot better for what I’m doing.

I thought it would be so cute to have a crochet pillow for my dorm room. Hopefully I’ll finish it before move-in day, but if not, it’ll be done soon enough. Made with yarn that mah bff Katie gave to me last Christmas and Caron One Pound in my stash.
